Whether you have a short term project, joint venture or want to try the system before purchase, renting can be a great way introduce FODS to your team.
What Are FODS?
The FODS Trackout Control System is a portable, quickly deployed BMP to control construction trackout The mats are installed by placing each 12’ wide x 7’ long mat in series and secured to the substrate using stakes or screw anchors. The FODS Trackout Control System is designed to replace traditional riprap tracking pads and enables contractors to reduce costs and complexity while maintaining a highly efficient Construction Trackout Controls. Contractors can buy or rent FODS Trackout Mats for short term projects to gain the mobility and flexibility of this portable BMP.
Installation requires minimal substrate preparation and removal often requires little or no remediation. Throughout the course of the project, the mats are maintained by simply cleaning the sediment off the mats using a FODS shovel or a skid steer with a broom attachment. On short term construction projects, FODS can offer significant savings on installation, removal, and remediation compared to alternative construction entrance techniques.

Energy Projects
On linear energy projects, FODS are often used to provide sediment tracking controls during construction. The portable system can be relocated as needed throughout each project phase. The system offers a flexible solution to the changing entrance/exit locations that will be encountered. Renting FODS Trackout Control System can enable contractors to quickly deploy without the logistics of organizing frequent delivery of gravel to the site.
Solar Fields
Solar fields often utilize multiple entrances during construction to allow delivery vehicles to access the site. When construction is complete, service partners can use the mats during short term maintenance operations. While construction firms often opt to purchase the FODS system for use on future projects, service partners can rent FODS for temporary use on maintenance tasks when needing to establish construction trackout controls.
Pipeline Projects
Linear projects will require multiple construction entrances. In additional to work and staging areas, construction entrances are required when the work crosses an active roadway. FODS Mats can be relocated to each roadway crossing without requiring additional materials and with minimal preparation which can lead to efficiency gains throughout the job. Contractors can rent FODS locally to reduce transportation costs.
Underground Utility Projects
In urban settings, underground utility work is often required beneath roadways and sideways. The FODS system can be installed over existing concrete and asphalt using the FODS Screw Anchors. Contractors can create an effective trackout solution where traditional solutions would require removal of existing substrates and repaving when the task is complete. FODS Mats can be rented and quickly deployed for these time sensitive projects.
Residential Projects
During custom home jobs, a construction entrance may be required on a single home or in some cases can be installed at a shared entrance of a housing development. Once the roads are paved, homes will often require a trackout solution during the remainder of work on each lot. The FODS system can be moved as the work is completed on each lot which can increase efficiency of the project. Single home construction and renovation projects may require a construction entrance depending on the scope and location of the project. Residential renovation contractors can rent FODS on projects that require an entrance when construction entrances do not always fall in the project scope.
